This is what I added and on new firmware, it's definitely showing up much bolder and thicker than on the older firmware. I'm not sure font sharpness makes any difference any more, but since the last firmware update didn't remove the lines, I left them in for all fonts.

[Reading]
readingFontSharpness\Lexia%20DaMa=0.2
readingFontWeight\Lexia%20DaMa=0.8
If that is working, and my fiddling today seems to suggest it is, then that is something that could be added to the utilities plugin. I'll need to work out the values for each position in the slider. And decide whether to offer separate sharpness and weight sliders.

And while I was testing this, I added some fonts and didn't restart. The font seems to be working. And the file name doesn't match the name in the font. Looks like Kobo has changed something in the font handling with FW3.11.0.
